Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to comparison of physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone films and current conventional trauma dressings for second-degree burn wounds and post-skin graft wounds.The main question it aims to answer is :

The development of a new type of wound dressing is urgently needed because existing wound dressings cannot be transparent, easy to change, easy to store and inexpensive at the same time.

Participants will receive routine wound treatment, after which they will be covered with a clear silicone membrane with physical microstructure modification.

Researchers will compare vaseline gauze group and decellularised pigskin group o see if transparent silicone film with physical microstructure modifications promotes wound healing, reduces the number of dressing changes, reduces the damage to the wound and painful irritation to the patient during dressing changes, thus improving the quality of wound repair and saving medical costs.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this study, a single-centre, autologous petrolatum gauze or decellularised pig skin treatment was used to study the effect of physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone membranes on the repair of second-degree burn wounds and implant-area wounds in a parallel controlled study using a randomised controlled clinical trial. In this study, 40 patients were enrolled in the burn surgery department of the First Affiliated Hospital of the Naval Military Medical University, with 20 second-degree burn wounds and 20 implant-area wounds each. The same patients were divided into a conventional treatment group (second-degree burn wounds covered with decellularized pig skin and implant-area wounds covered with petroleum jelly gauze) and a silicone film-covered group according to the computerized random number method. After routine clinical treatment of the wounds, the wounds were covered with the corresponding dressings according to the groups, and the healing rate, transparency of the dressings, adhesion of the dressings to the wounds, pain level of the patients when the dressings were removed, infection rate of the wounds and incidence of adverse reactions were observed.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Second-degree burn wounds covered with silicone film sheet group

After routine clinical treatment of second-degree burn wounds, the innermost layer is covered with physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone film sheet , and the outer dressing is changed every 3 to 4 days to observe and record the wounds, and the innermost dressing is changed weekly or as necessary and the number of times is recorded to observe the wound healing rate, dressing transparency, dressing-wound adhesion, pain level, wound infection rate and incidence of adverse reactions.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone film sheet

Intervention Type DEVICE

The main component of the physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone film sheet is transparent silicone rubber, which has a three-dimensional microstructure on its trauma contact surface through physical mechanics treatment, which can provide effective mechanical stimulation for trauma healing. And after testing, the silicone film sheet is breathable, light-permeable, non-toxic and non-allergenic. It is expected to significantly reduce the number of dressing changes, reduce the damage to the wound and the painful stimulation to the patient during dressing changes, and promote the healing of the wound to a certain extent, thus improving the quality of wound repair and saving medical costs.

Second-degree burn wounds covered with decellularized pig skin group

After routine clinical treatment of second-degree burn wounds, the innermost layer was covered with decellularized pig skin, the outer dressing was changed every 3 to 4 days, the wounds were observed and recorded, and the innermost dressing was changed weekly or as necessary and the number of times was recorded to observe the wound healing rate, dressing transparency, dressing-wound adhesion, pain level, wound infection rate and incidence of adverse reactions.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Decellularized pig skin

Intervention Type DEVICE

Decellularized pig skin is an allogeneic trauma covering from pigs and is a commonly used trauma covering for second-degree burn wounds. It adheres to clean superficial wounds, creates a temporary barrier to the wound, reduces wound exudation, limits loss of body components, improves microcirculatory stasis, provides a microenvironment suitable for wound healing, protects inter-ecological tissue, promotes repair and regeneration, and reduces pain. Its disadvantages are: soft structure, difficult to fix the trauma; opaque, unable to observe the trauma; pigskin needs to be stored under suitable temperature and humidity, and has a limited time. When used, decellularized pig skin is directly covered on conventionally treated second-degree burn wounds.

Post-operative skin grafting wounds covered with silicone film sheet group

After skin grafting, the innermost layer is covered with physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone film sheet , and the outer dressing is changed every 3 to 4 days to observe and record the wound. The innermost layer is changed weekly or as necessary and the number of times is recorded to observe the wound healing rate, transparency of the dressing, adhesion of the dressing to the wound, pain, wound infection rate and incidence of adverse reactions.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone film sheet

Intervention Type DEVICE

The main component of the physical microstructure-modified transparent silicone film sheet is transparent silicone rubber, which has a three-dimensional microstructure on its trauma contact surface through physical mechanics treatment, which can provide effective mechanical stimulation for trauma healing. And after testing, the silicone film sheet is breathable, light-permeable, non-toxic and non-allergenic. It is expected to significantly reduce the number of dressing changes, reduce the damage to the wound and the painful stimulation to the patient during dressing changes, and promote the healing of the wound to a certain extent, thus improving the quality of wound repair and saving medical costs.

Post-operative skin grafting wounds covered with vaseline gauze group

After skin grafting, the innermost layer was covered with vaseline gauze, and the outer layer was changed every 3 to 4 days to observe and record the wound. The innermost layer was changed weekly or as necessary and the number of times was recorded to observe the wound healing rate, transparency of the dressing, adhesion of the dressing to the wound, pain, wound infection rate and incidence of adverse reactions.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Vaseline gauze

Intervention Type DEVICE

Vaseline gauze is the most commonly used conventional dressing for the implant area, which is mainly made of skimmed cotton gauze impregnated with petroleum jelly and paraffin oil, which has a lubricating effect and can promote the growth of granulation and wound healing. However, its moisturizing time is relatively short and requires frequent dressing changes; moreover, petroleum jelly gauze often adheres to the wound surface severely, which may cause bleeding and new epidermal damage during dressing changes and affect the wound healing; the wound surface is constantly oozing blood and fluid, and the dressing cannot be effectively isolated from the outside world after wetting, which increases the chance of infection. Vaseline gauze is applied directly to the post-operative skin grafting wound.
